QUOTE(DrifterJay @ Mar 14 2004, 01:11 PM) so I couldnt import mine since its modified? that's most likely correct ... i grew up in germany and teeners were not part of the automotive landscape. i have seen more 914s here in CA in a month than in 35+ years in germany. last time i checked (88) there were 3771 914s registered in germany. that doesn't mean they were actually driven. by now, it's probably half that number. your car won't be street legal in it's current setup over there. it could be modified to pass the TÜV check, i'm sure, but that might not be cheap. US soldiers used to have TÜV excemption in germany, meaning they could bring over and drive their cars without TÜV approval, but that has been changed a long time ago. on the other hand, once you get on the autobahn for the first time, you will KILL for the chance to drive a 914 over there.
